Library of Abilities: Somewhere deep in the empirical city (no not the famous one, the lesser known empirical city), lies a forgotten place of magical literature, The Ethereal Libraries. This majestic palace of a place is getting older due to no one taking care of it, but it still holds a powerful secret; The books! they hold descriptive passages of every known ability of man and pokemon. and since this place is magic, when you battle here the books come alive! they miss being used (refer to the kitchen ware fom beauty and the beast), and they will willingly let you use their power! As you send a pokemon in, two random books will soar straight into your pokemon, and with a flash of power, they will be incapable of using their original abilities! but fret not, they will have two new abilities! wether its for good or worse, we know not, but it sure does make for an interesting battle!

Ref RNGs two abilities for each pokemon. If a pokemon is FE then they get 3 RNG'd abilities.

The arena is 200 feet by 200 feet, square shaped. the walls of this arena are tall and dusty book shelves, and the floor is covered in a deep pruple and gold carpet, giving the place an old but magical feel. there are some lights, not too much though. every pokemon can see just fine though.

Grass: Grass STAB; immunity to Leech Seed and Worry Seed. 50% reduction in status effect chance of oncoming "powder" attacks. More mobile in areas with strong natural light sources. Superior senses in tall grass and forest areas. Able to use Wrap and Bind without losing focus.

Sheer Force (Can be Enabled): This Pokemon can energize all its attacks with secondary effect chances less than 100%. When Enabled, the Base Attack Power of every move with an effect chance less than 100% increases by two (2), but they will never have a secondary effect.

Oblivious (Innate): This Pokemon is incapable of being affected by Attract, Cute Charm, or Captivate.

Simple (Innate): This Pokemon innately exaggerates the effect of stat boosts and drops to the point where they have double the effectiveness and thus double the stage modifier (e.g. Swords Dance boosts Attack by four (4) stages, Bulk Up boosts Attack and Defense by two (2) stages each). Stat boosts and drops still maximize at six (6) stages.

If this Pokemon is damaged by a direct attack, the Illusion will cease at the end of the round. Direct damage is any attack that does damage to the Pokemon's HP. Attacks that are evaded, blocked via Protect, or damage a Substitute are not considered direct damage. It will retain the typing and moveset of the Pokemon with Illusion. [Usage Note: PM the ref if you are sending out a Zorua or Zoroark with the info on Zorua/Zoroark and one of your squad members in a Switch=KO battle. You must use that squad member later in the battle though.]

Marvel Scale (Innate): This Pokemon’s coat shimmers when afflicted with a status condition, reducing the Base Attack Power of incoming physical attacks by two (2).

And thus at the Librarian's approval, King_Serperior ad DFrog battled at the Abilities Aisle. Under the dim lighting, the books are slightly vibrating, itching to attach themselves to the nearest Pokemon. A Nargacuga perches atop the highest shelf, indifferent to the books, but still keeping a half-cocked eye. Both trainers flex their fingers, ready to begin.

King_Serperior sends out and equips
DFrog does the same, with orders
King_Serperior responds
I reff

Both battlers toss out their Pokeballs at the same time, calling out to their beloved cuties to attack ferociously - but its not just the Pokeballs, elemental beams and mirror images flying. Indeed, the aisle of books came alive when the Pokemons appeared, books soaring about, adding to the disarray, and some of them even ended up slapping, with a flash of light, into the Pokemons' bodies!!

Grey-Timburr and Grigori-Dratini uses a combination of deadly STABs and solid typing efficiency that overpowers King Serperior's mirror reversal tactics! And the first exchange sees KS-Snivy, the trainer's namesake, down for the count, at quite a heavy cost on Grigori-Dratini's side, as ES-Feebas struggles to keep up - who'll be sent out to avenge the grass snake next?

"That was a rather painful round. KS did good, but he wasn't ready for this. Come on out Del Lago!"

: Ice Beam ~ Body Slam ~ Ice Beam (All Dratini)KO: If Dratini faints, redirect at Timburr and change the first action against it to Water Gun and the rest to Water Pulse.Sub1: If Dratini uses a P/E move, use Water Pusle on Timburr.Sub2: If targeted by a damaging Electric move A1/A3, use Dive (Timburr) and push down.

Well, the books settled down for a bit, all hovering above the battlers, but smart enough to avoid Nargacuga's impatient tail. Grigori-Dratini, knowing his end being near, Swiftly exploded into an Extreme Outrage before double Ice Beams from KS's team took him out! Grey-Timburr seemed unpertubed, though, even when his heaviest attack missed against DL-Wailmer ("...that is an unexpected coincidence"). Except that, ES-Feebas got a good aim and Scalded him while DL-Wailmer Pulsed and Gunned with weak STABbing Water.

Sorry, KS, but Surf would fail because the library is not situated near plentiful sources of water, and I doubt the Librarian would approve of the books getting soppy and wet. Therefore, Del Lago reverts to using the combo. Feel free to argue (this is Leethoof's arena, right?).

Monochrome-Zorua seems to have bibliophobia, being Rattled by all those flying books, Defeatist at the onset of battle under the presence of so much ink and paper - which will probably prove frustrating to DFrog. And ES-Feebas continue to work hand-in-hand with DL-Wailmer to bring down Grey-Timburr this time with STABs. Monochrome-Zorua attempts to trip DL-Wailmer over with Grassy Knots, but it looks like the latter survive to the next round, at least. Will KS's luck continue to hold, or will DFrog pull an unsuspecting comeback? ("I feel your pain, little dreamer-fox.")

When Siesta-Numel shows up, the books seem to have taken an interest, despite the heat emanating from her. One of the books actually dried up from the soppy attack from DL-Wailmer and rubbed the pages vigorously in the heat, transferring some Static energy to the volcanic camel! Monocrhome-Zorua banged his head against one of the bookcase, but at least that cleared his mind enough to get the jump on ES-Feebas, but unfortunately for DFrog, DL-Wailmer was playing dead, and once again one of DFrog's team fell to another one-two team effort from KS!

ES-Feebas tried one last Scalding attack, but the desperation was too much for the delicate fish, and she flopped out. Angry at the boiling water, Zorua Snarled, and the exhausted DL-Wailmer was shocked to unconscious! This match has been brought to a final one-on-one, so let's keep up the pace before library closes.

Upon seeing another opponent, the Zorua cries;
The Aron's most draconic attack missed, as a result of pity;
But Defeatist Monochrome cannot reverse the tides;
And thus the Sturdy Sith wins, even though he be heady!

Sorry but I think Zorua get a second KOC because he was the last pokemon to damage Feebas before she fainted. Other than than GG KS, looking forward to a future battle where I actually have an electric move & thanks for the prompt reffings ZT! :D
